Dr. Bilal Philips Banned - Again!
Kenya This Time . .
If you agree with us and you are saying"Hey, enough is enough" then COMMENT for Dr. Bilal to read at the bottom of this page...
Here is the article we found in Kenya's Standard News - Please read it and if you disagree, then write to them (in a nice way). Explain Dr. Bilal is a supporter of peace and helps our youth to learn and participate in constructive activities everywhere he goes.
From the Standard News in Kenya . . . February 23, 2012
A radical Muslim cleric has been refused entry to Kenya just days before he was due to attend Islamic conferences in Nairobi and Mombasa.
Sheik Bilal Philips, a Canadian citizen who lives in Qatar was deported from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Nairobi on Wednesday hours after he had arrived.
He had been invited to give lectures in Nairobi and Mombasa. Anti-terror police officers and immigration officers deported him back to Qatar on realising he is in a list of those terror suspects banned in Australia, UK, US and other European countries.
Sheik Philips' ban was confirmed by senior police and Immigration officers in Nairobi on Thursday.
"He is not wanted here because he may poison our youth through his controversial preaching," said a senior immigration officer who participated in his deportation.
The US Government has named him an "unindicted co-conspirator" in the 1993 World Trade Centre bombing in New York City, and he was deported from the US in 2004.
It is understood major border points have now been put on alert amid fears he may try to sneak back to the country through other means.
It is not clear on who had invited him but a number of Muslim leaders were angered by the government move.

In 2009, the arrival of another Jamaican cleric AL-Faisal sparked a major confrontation between police and a section of Muslim youths in Nairobi that turned bloody.
Just like Sheikh Philips, Sheikh Al-Faisal had been invited to give lectures in Nairobi and Mombasa. The Jamaican had sneaked into the Coast through the Lungalunga border after driving from South Africa to Tanzania.
And when the government realized of his presence, he was detained as efforts to deport him were being made.
Major airlines declined to carry him back to his country because he had been banned in many countries where they would make stopovers.
It took the hiring of a private jet to have him flown back to his country through a West African nation.
Police say they have intensified their patrols and vigilance amid fears that terror suspects plan to attack vital installations.

All I heard from his lectures are that he is spreading how Islam encourages people to stay in peace and how women are respected in Islam.
Please kindly stop this injustice against him. Thanks
Editor to Tasmiyah Ansari: Maybe he is a "radical" - like a "radical pacifist" or a "radical peace lover" - There is no doubt people are spreading insults and gossip about many people these.
Let's all pray for each other, inshallah.
Anyways, it shows how uninformed Kenyan intelligence agencies are...you cannot just ban a man who's moderate Muslim because some other countries lied or made mistake about him.
